The Sunset Reflections by Natural Retreats Difference

We take great pride in our unique ability to handle your investment personally and professionally. Our occupancy and rental income are the best on the Cape. In an independent survey, the VRMA (Vacation Rental Managers Association) analyzed our Occupancy Perfomance as: 83% for 2013, 87% in 2014 and our internal numbers indicate we are trending at 93% in 2015. This translates to putting 32% more rental revenue in our homeowners pockets annually. Rest assured you are with the very best!

The same VRMA survey shows Sunset also topping the charts for the "Lowest Homeowner Expenses" per vacation home managed. In our rental program, Homeowners enjoy:

No Charge for Credit Card Fees

No Charge for New or Replacement Linens

No Charge for Housekeeping/Cleaning on guest stays (although we do require our owners pay for an annual Deep Clean, which maintains the long-term integrity of the home)

No Charge for state-of-the-art New Electronic Locks

No Charge for home photos (a picture speaks a thousand bookings!! Sunset is proud to feature the largest home photos on the web)

Testimonials

"Sunset Reflections has been fantastic - we had rented our house previously through two different companies and > were sorely disappointed. We went from renting our house out 10 weeks a year to renting it out 40 weeks year in > and year out. The team there is the best!!!"

-Owner, All Decked Out

"I am fortunate to have such excellent people taking care of my homes."

-Owner, Cape Oasis

"They always look out for my best interest while making my homes the best they can be for the people that stay there."

-Owner, Sun Chaser

"As an owner, I couldn't be happier with the job Sunset Reflections has done! They have been there to advise me > and to execute on all manner of improvement projects, personal requests, and unexpected situations. I know that > any house I leave with them will be cared for as well as I would care for it (and often better)."

-Owner, Parasol

"Giving a vacation home over to a property manager is something that no one takes lightly. For me, the decision to entrust my home to Sunset Reflections felt almost like saying goodbye to a member of the family. The only reason that I was able to do it was the professionalism and personal warmth that I experienced from their staff."

-Owner, Sugar Dunes

"We have been rental owners for 20+ years on the Cape and have had several management companies. Sunset Reflections has surpassed all of them by far. Bookings have been fantastic and they make renting your property a joy."

-Owner, Southern Belle

"I know from all of the rave reviews and repeat rentals that Sunset Reflections is taking the same friendly and service- oriented approach to their renters as they do with me as a homeowner."

-Owner, Beachfront Paradise

"What we like; a more personal touch - not just a number, but feeling more like a partner. They pay attention to maintenance and repair; stress cleanliness - a tough assignment, and above all, keep the house rented."

-Owner, Just Coastin

"Sunset Reflections is a delight to work with. They are always professional, attentive and helpful."

-Owner, By the Sea

"...Sunset Reflections has been indispensable in helping us get our house ready for rental - it is like having best friends at the Cape looking out for you! We were approached by other rental companies- some offered lower prices, but none compared to Sunset Reflections? they are worth every penny you pay them. Their high standard of customer service extends to both homeowners and renters and explains why homeowners stay with them year after year and why renters book year after year."

-Owner, Easy Breezy

"...reservations wise, I have been pleasantly surprised! We are already booked solidly through the summer and fall seasons, > and I feel very confident that they will exceed our rental projection expectations. Now that is saying something, because I've seen most management services over-estimate their projected rental income, and then underperform."

-Owner, Rosemary Dunes

Commitment to Maximizing your Income

Sunset Reflections has outperformed the Southeast and the nation two years in a row in Occupancy and Average Income per Home. The key is constant emphasis on achieving year-round occupancy.

Our team is keenly focused on the dynamic Forgotten Coast market and with our proprietary rental rate optimizer we are able to adjust rates in real-time to insure your home is occupied at the highest rent possible.

Our team of seasoned professionals are the eyes and ears for your property and we take this responsibility seriously. With a maintenance department that is on call 24/7 we can quickly attend to any problem that arises, and our qualified technicians can usually take care of repairs themselves, at a fraction of the cost of bringing in outside vendors. When issues do come up, you will be promptly apprised. If necessary, and with your permission, we rely on our vetted network of the top local contractors and oversee their work.

At your invitation, our team can provide you with tips to help make your home more rental friendly and desirable. We have helped our homeowners redecorate on a budget, overseen minor and major renovations as well as new construction. We can do as little or as much as you’d like to make sure that your home stays rented.

Finally, because most of our homeowners do not live near the Cape, Sunset Reflections has a written Severe Weather Preparedness Plan for each home which is implemented should severe weather be forecasted.

We take great pride in caring for all of your vacation rental home needs and protecting the value of your vacation home.

Housekeeping

We are proud to be one of the only management companies on the Cape that provides a certified housekeeping staff that participates in ongoing and comprehensive continuing education programs and follows a 76-point cleaning plan designed to ensure consistent and thorough cleaning of each home, each week…and then we re-inspect every home to verify that our high standards are met.

Our system also provides that the same professional housekeeping team and inspector clean the same home each week. This way we know if something is missing or broken.

Sunset's Golden Rule is that we only get one first impression, so our guests walking in to a clean home is critical every week of the year. We ask for guest feedback on cleanliness and bonus our team on these results. Year after year we find that these tools help us maintain the highest occupancy on the Cape as well as happy repeat visitors.

Trusted Accounting Practices

Sunsets accounting and reporting is transparent to our homeowners and we will keep you informed of all financial dealings related to your investment. We provide easy to understand, detailed monthly Financial Reports (or Statements) that outline all income and expenses. We also prepare all state and local sales tax payments and reporting. Finally, we engage a local CPA, with extensive knowledge of and background in Vacation Rental Management to provide third party trust accounting audits.

Keyless Entries

Sunset Reflections provides state-of-the-art keyless entry systems for all of our homes under management. This web based system provides easy access for our guests and protects your home. You can have peace of mind that strangers won’t be traipsing through your property because these locks record the date, time and codes, allowing us to audit who has been in your home any time, any day. These locks are purchased by Sunset Reflections at no charge to you.

"We loved our stay at this gorgeous new home. Everything was well done, comfortable and convenient. The kitchen was well-equipped for large family meals and plenty of space for a big group. The pool was wonderful after a hot day at the beach. We would not hesitate to come back any time we could.
We had a great week. Thank you!"- Tracy
